    Well, thank you Mr T for being cheaper!:T:T I like you, in this context, although the last time I shopped at Mr T was when I picked up my free (too small:() block of cheese and nothing else:D.

    Nothing really special to report vs T - this may be of note to some 1 x Richmond Irish Recipe Thick Sausages (12 per pack ...£2.50£1.75 although it's still way too expensive for me at 10% off £1.75. My guide price is £1 for 454g, whereas these Richmonds, at 10% off T's price, are £1.05:eek: per 454g. (They are actually 681g but I have done my sums and adjusted them to as if they were 454g again.) Actually, not as bad as I thought, although that's including the 10% and still getting, even after it, worse than £1 per 454g whereas I'd be expecting 90p per 454g including the 10%!

    It's a Tena Lady receipt as well. Not as good as the one aau1 had, but never mind!

    1 x Tena Lady Normal Pads (12)£2.45£2.40
    Everything on it that compared wasn't 10% cheaper than T! I like those kinds of receipt:T:T. (It's therefore not lost anything, as I see it, and I like it like that.)

    Heinz soups do not pick up M mbuy again, although no use to us anyway:

    2 x Heinz Classic Cream of Tomato Soup (400g)£1.20£1.78
    1 x Heinz Classic Vegetable Soup (400g)£0.60£0.89
    1 x Heinz Classic Pea & Ham Soup (400g)£0.60£0.89
    1 x Heinz Classic Carrot & Coriander Soup (400g)£0.60£0.89

    Vs M
    1 x ASDA Carrots (1Kg)£0.57£0.59

    Ah - it 'lost' possibly a penny there. Although, since they didn't do APG shops and claim on them, but instead added about a couple of pence to my claim, all is well!

    However, if not 'paying by wombles', then 1.2Kg M carrots packs at 3 for £1.50 (possible mix and match, of better or worse value depending on what you get) are cheaper (in M).

    As usual, they bought the wrong number of 4 pint milks for an M comp again.

    Everything not 10% cheaper:D. Of course, the opposite rule applies when shopping in T, S or M and doing an A comp:rotfl:.

    Although, in fact, that's a little out of line with complete absolute correctness and I ought to give a more pedantic version - for me, there, the word "opposite" is in fact a little ambiguous - but that's the simplistic version and I won't confuse the vast majority of people by giving you my more complex version:laugh:. (Okay, "opposite" of "not 10% cheaper" suggests it should all be exactly 10% cheaper, but in fact might be better in some contexts to be a lot more than that rather than merely just with A at exactly 10% cheaper. '11% or more' cheaper [or 'more than' 10% cheaper] isn't 10% cheaper, so wouldn't be the "opposite" - but that's obviously not what I meant and "opposite" in fact does mean that when it isn't actually! There you are. Pedants:D:rotfl::rotfl:.) You know what I mean - or you did, before I added everything in the parentheses. In which case, ignore all the stuff in the parentheses, and all will be clear and simple! And breathe...:rotfl:
